Bad website design

I can't think of anything else to write about to day so I'll write about Web Pages That Suck another website I got from about.com. It's a website I want to read, but I always forget to read it.

I don't have much to write about web pages that suck other then to say I want to start reading the site regularly and it looks cool. I also hope to have my website featured on web pages that suck someday.

Human Anatomy

One thing I want to learn more about is human anatomy. I like computers and learning how they work, but I think anatomy is even more interesting. I have thought about looking on the web for a anatomy website, but I never got around to it. Today is my lucky day because I read a post on make blog about an anatomy website called Think Anatomy. I hope to learn a lot from the website.

Leaning anatomy seems like a huge challenge and I don't know if I can learn that much about anatomy, but I will try.

Not doing enought programming

I feel I have not been doing enough programming and that frustrates me. As I have mentioned before I want to put up a website, but I have not been doing much programming lately, because I have been doing other things online like reading emails and RSS feeds.

So I want to cut down on the amount of emails I get and hopefully that will give me more time to learn how to program and work on a website. I also want to use that extra time to make 3D models and work with gimp.

Back to programming. I have been doing it for a few years now and I never seem to progress that much. I mean I have never designed my own program and that is something I want to eventually do. But maybe with a lot of practice I can get better I don't know.

Animation meat update

I just want to write about animation meat again today. In my earlier post about animation meat I said I wanted to do some animation tutorials on the site, but after I wrote about animation meat on my blog I looked at the site again and I did not find the tutorials I wanted to do. I did not look at the website close enough before I decided I wanted to do the animation tutorials. The tutorials probably have not been available for awhile.

I was disappointed when I saw the animation tutorials I wanted to do were no longer on animation meat and I wish I would have download them when the were available, but I got over it. I still want to lean how to draw animation thought.

I still draw every day and I still think I am not very good at drawing, but I keep drawing anyway.

Wow, I have written over 220 posts

Today I just want to congratulate myself for writing over two hundred twenty posts. When I started this blog I never thought I would be able to find ideas for that many posts. The posts may not be that good, but I keep posting and that is all that matters. I only have one hundred forty posts to go to reach my goal of posting on my blog every day for a year. I hope I make my goal.

Leopard Programming langauge

I don't have much to write about leopard, but I will write about it anyway. I thought I had mentioned all the programming languages I have tried, but I forgot about leopard. I can't remember using leopard, I just downloaded the compiler that's all.

TCl programming language

I read an article on Dr. Dobb's and it mentioned the Tcl programming language. I think I have heard of Tcl before, but I have never wanted to try it, well now I want to insall Tcl on my computer and write some code in it. I am not sure why I want to try Tcl, I just need to.

AutoHotKey programming langauge

yesterday I read a post on lifehacker about which programming language to learn first and I saw a comment by Gina Trapani about autoHotKey. She also put a link in her comment to a autohotkey tutorial that I want to try. I don't know what I can do with the language, I just want to try the tutorial.

Scratch programming language

I first heard about scratch when it was kim komando's cool site of the day a few years ago, I think. So I went to the scratch website for a few minutes and wanted to download and install scratch on my computer, but I didn't.

A few days ago I read a post on make blog about a game someone made with scratch. I think it would be interesting to try scratch, but I am not sure if I ever will because I have other programming languages I want to learn first.

Wings 3d

Yesterday I was going thought my bookmarks and I found a blog called Linux which has a bunch of links to free programs.

On the blog there was a link to a program I had never heard of before called wings 3d. When I saw the website for wings 3d I thought wow another 3d animation program. I looked around the website a bit and then downloaded wings 3d and installed it on my computer.

I launched the program to see what it was like and it looks like it might be fun to use, but I have no idea how to use wings 3d or exactly what I can make with it.

I want to download the user manual an try some of the tutorials. I hope I will be able to use wings 3d to create something to post on my blog.

Rubik's cube

Yesterday I read a post on about.com 20th century about the the rubik's cube. I also went to the rubik's cube website. After reading the post and going to the website I remembered that I have a rubik's cube and thought I should try and solve the puzzle. But there was only one problem I did not know where my cube was so I went looking for it. I found it today.

I don't know how many years I have had that cube, but it has been awhile. I have tried to solve the puzzle in the past, but I did not try that hard. So now I want to put in some effort and solve the puzzle. It does not matter how long it takes me I just want to keep working at it.
